It's that time of the year again! Fans rejoice as Pakistan Super League (PSL) returns with its seventh installment. The first match between Karachi Kings and Multan Sultans has commenced with Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan front and centre.
This year's PSL kicked off with an underwhelming opening ceremony that saw singers Atif Aslam and Aima Baig take the stage and groove to this year's PSL anthem, Agay Dekh. Atif, clad in a black sequined jacket and oversized sunnies (a style we have seen him repeat one too many times recently) and Aima looking stunning in a pastel pant and a crop top, performed for the audience in a rather pale ceremony as compared to its previous years'.
As the stadium echoes with the chants of Babar and Rizwan, Pakistani Twitter readies itself for what they do best: deliver us some of the best memes of all time.
Here we bring you some of the funniest tweets:
It's Babar and Rizwan's world and we're just living in it!
It’s Karachi vs Multan.

Awful awful song. And whoever did wardrobe for these two people did their best to sabotage it further. https://t.co/uj2aMZO39P

CITY WARS ARE BACK!
PSL is about unity. It's about displaying Pakistan as a peaceful country. It's about being one as a nation. Makes me so sad watching everyone on twitter fight. Because it doesn't matter who wins the trophy as long as it's not Islamabad United.

PSL can also be renamed as yearly event for people from smaller cities displaying their inferiority complex for Karachi.

The only thing that can unite us now is our hate for Lahore Qalandars and Salman Iqbal.
